Q:"Allegretto"
B:Thomas Wilson - Companion to the Ball Room (1816, p. 124)
N:"To account for the unusual length of this tune--it was originally
N:composed for a Quick March, in opposition & partly taken from the
N:French National Air of Ca Ira, it has since become a favorite dance
N:particularly with good dancers, as it requires a very long figure
N:not easily performed by the Tyros in the Art, the above is the original…"
